a good way i deal with stress is to scream (when i'm walking the dog usually, but it helps if you live in the countryside like me) i trash my room completely and then i have to tidy it up (it creates stress relief AND takes your mind off an urge) or i get a bouncy ball and bounce it as hard as i can on the floor, swinging my arm down - it gives a good feeling when you feel your arm going down that fast.
Stress balls are great and also another thing i do is bake cupcakes! honestly, it helps, and you get the extra reward of getting to eat something really yummy afterwards. It also doesn't matter if they get burned or something because if i ruin them by accident, i hurl them at windows, or even at the birds outside. LOL
It really helps :)
Anyway, lecture over! Cant wait to read more of your story either! LOL
